Comparative Biomechanics: Life’s Physical World Description

\r\n\r\n

This book will be a fantastic text to have an opening physics class, eg, mechanics classes targeted at future doctors. It starts using the “simple” problem of walking, which may be understood being an oscillation, using the frequency updated to the duration of your legs. After that, it proceeds to dimensional analysis, and goodies the structural world as some simple tubes, surfaces, flows, beams, and levers, all amenable to simple calculation and estimation. This book consists of more real, relevant physics than any opening physics text (using the possible exception from the Feynman lectures, that are totally unsuited for first-year students). It’s the best physics textbook we all know. (Review co-compiled by Dr Sanjoy Mahajan, Department of Physics, College of Cambridge). Comparative Biomechanics: Life’s Physical World
